Luton Town striker Carlton Morris emphasized that the players need to take responsibility for their 3-2 loss to Coventry City, despite manager Rob Edwards shouldering the blame. Morris, who opened the scoring from the penalty spot and helped establish a 2-0 lead, believes the squad faltered in managing the game effectively. Coventry capitalized in the second half, with Ellis Simms, Victor Torp, and Haji Wright scoring, the latter after Luton’s Tom Holmes received a red card.
Morris noted that while the team initially defended well and posed a threat on offense, they failed to maintain that intensity after halftime. The Hatters were missing five defenders and had faced a busy schedule with games against Watford and Sunderland. However, Morris refused to use these factors as excuses, acknowledging that their performance fell short of expectations. He also expressed frustration with missed opportunities, noting that they need to convert strong performances into points, especially after losing to Sunderland midweek.
